In this first episode of 2022, I spoke to Gerard Long who has written a book called “Living Hope”, which is the story of how he overcame immense personal loss of not one but two children and other close family members within quick succession. A few years later, Gerard had a Near Death Experience which transformed his life and he found his purpose which was to share his story with others, to give hope to other parents grieving the loss of a child and providing support for those struggling. Gerard and his wife also set up a charity “Awakening to Love” which has provided clean water to millions of families in India and Africa.
